Postal carrier Adam Stuart of Llandudno, Wales, has admitted tossing thousands of pieces of mail in the woods because he “had lost interest in his job.”

Stuart has pled guilty to two counts of delaying mail and stealing 67 postal packets.

Police say he also opened some letters to steal club card vouchers for a grocery store chain and other items, according to the Daily Mail.

Stuart’s attorney has asked for sentencing to be delayed until reports could be submitted concerning his client’s being diagnosed with dyspraxia, which may have affected his thinking skills.

We hope this isn’t a trend. A few weeks ago HRB told you about a postal worker in Germany who stored more than 20,000 pieces of mail in his home.

The delivery man was caught when a neighbor alerted police. The neighbor reported the postman was stuffing undelivered mail into the garbage.

When police searched his house they found bags and boxes full of undelivered mail. Police say a conservative estimate is that the postman hoarded more than 20,000 pieces of mail since August 2007.

Two vans were needed to remove the mail from his house.

The 23-year-old told police he got behind with deliveries because of his night school studies and that he felt too tired to catch up.

Police note that the postman didn’t deliver mail addressed to himself either.
